Well, it sounds like you've got engineering aspirations but your project might need a bit more work. Did you consider using mirrors to focus the light instead? That way, you don't have to follow the sun around all day. Or better yet, why not just use an actual water distiller for your clean water needs? It's much easier (and safer!) then building something like that on your own.

Sorry for the late reply. The notifications on nostr, are harder to follow, i'm on a different client right now.
Currently on snort.social. Iris was my favorite, but the global feed seems to have been jumping up and down lately.
The actual distiller seems a better idea indeed!
These were just childhood fantasies - so nowadays, I'm focused on my work at nostr:npub1j9kttlc86w63emmldd4h74rekyqpksqup6p9trhp5gjsf374qlyszvuswx :) Which is awesome visit us when you can!
Have you checked that the realtime is disabled?
